9. Pricing & Payment
Accepted payment methods: Visa and Mastercard. Accepted currencies: GBP (£), EUR (€), CAD (CA$).
9.1. Pay per operation. You pay for each operation individually, by card, at the moment you download its result. There is no prepaid balance, no packages and no stored funds.
9.2. Per-page pricing. The price of an operation is calculated per page at the rate for the chosen output format, plus an OCR surcharge per page where OCR is required. Prices are set in GBP and may be displayed in supported currencies using the exchange rate shown in the Service. Current rates are shown on our Pricing page and in the Service before you pay.
9.3. Failed operations. If an operation does not complete successfully, it is not charged. You pay only for a finished, downloadable result.

9.5. Invoices. Electronic receipts or invoices are provided for each payment, including applicable VAT where required.
10. Cancellations, Refunds & Chargebacks
10.1. Because you pay only at the point a completed result is delivered, digital performance and payment happen together. You may abandon an operation at no cost any time before payment.
